Last week in Tribeca, GoingDry.co gathered guests inside Glowbar for a wellness event focused on skincare, herbal remedies, and nonalcoholic social rituals. The appointment-only experience combined custom facials with mocktails, supplements, and at-home wellness tools, offering a grounded approach to self-care during the colder months.
The latest GoingDry.co event, hosted by Hilary Sheinbaum, invited guests into an experience centered on wellness and intention. Attendees arrived one by one into Glowbar’s lobby, designed with soft, neutral tones. A mocktail bar stood as a welcoming focal point, stocked with nonalcoholic spirits from FLUÈRE and plant-based tinctures from WishGarden Herbs. Sheinbaum guided guests through the offerings, each aligned with the GoingDry.co’s philosophy of drinking less and living more. FLUÈRE’s spirit bottles were beautifully designed, and the Spicy Margarita was as a standout, carrying citrus and heat with none of the heaviness that usually follows. The mocktails were layered and intentional, built to feel social without demanding recovery.
WishGarden’s herbal tinctures were paired seamlessly into the experience. Known for their liquid formulations designed for fast absorption, the blends promote sleep, energy, skin support, and nervous system balance. After beginning to build a routine with the Immune Boost and Sleepy Nights tinctures, I noticed better sleep and clearer mornings that felt natural and sustainable. Nearby, Make Time Wellness supplements focused on hydration, focus, and beauty from within, designed for daily use rather than short-term fixes. The orange-flavored hydration drink offered a gentle alternative to coffee, supporting focus without overstimulation and reinforcing wellness as something that fits into a morning rather than overtakes it.
Inside the treatment rooms, the tone remained clean and unhurried. Custom facials were led by Glowbar estheticians, including Alize Santos, whose approach balanced precision with calm. Extractions were performed carefully, clearing congestion without irritation. Cavitation followed, using ultrasound technology to gently lift impurities and exfoliate the skin without harsh ingredients. High-frequency treatment introduced warmth and oxygenation, supporting healing and reducing inflammation. Microcurrent closed the session, subtly lifting and toning facial muscles while improving circulation and lymphatic flow. The results were understated but immediate. Skin looked rested rather than treated, bright without shine. It felt like the kind of glow that comes from well-kept consistency rather than correction.
After treatments, guests were introduced to the wellness rituals they would be taking home to continue the self-care experience. Gift bags included additional WishGarden tinctures, Make Time Wellness supplements, and a shower head filter from AquaTru.
The mocktails, tinctures, and treatments all point toward the idea of self-care as something that can be layered into daily life without friction that supports wellness inside and out. A sleep tincture before bed. Filtered water in the shower. Hydration in the morning. While winter is an ideal time to built habits quietly and intentionally, it’s also a good reminder to take time and design a lifestyle to support energy when it’s low and restore balance when it slips.
